    Or is it completely irrelevant ?

    Names flying around on Charlton social media this morning:

    Nigel Adkins
    Johnnie Jackson
    Andy Hughes
    Jason Euell
    Nathan Jones
    Jose Riga
    Chris O'Loughlin


    The latter seems to be the overwhelming favourite - he has watched our games in recent weeks in an identical fashion to how Karel Fraeye bokked Guy Luzon before replacing him.

    Who can argue with O'Loughlin's stellar CV ?

    Not only did he win 19% of his games during his short tenure as St Truiden manager, he also enjoyed a fine spell in deepest Congo.

    My ideal next manager were we a serious club, a manager who could rebuild us from the bottom, would be Curbs.

    As it is, there is more chance of Slade giving up donuts than anyone credible coming in.

    It appears a credible manager won't be coming in.

    Jackson. He has managerial qualities, and considering most fans probably conceive a realistic push at promotion isn't forthcoming this season, it gives him time to get possible ideas across.

    The first 6 months did Powell in good stead for the following seasons promotion push.

    I'd be happy to see one of the following -

    Curbs with Jacko as assistant
    Jacko with Curbs as Director of Football
    Billy Davies
    Brian McDermott
    Keith Curle

    Never going to happen, though.

    Rich Cawley reckons Nigel Adkins is in the frame, with Chris O'Who groomed to join the coaching staff.

    GET IN THERE <cracker>

    Adkins is better than O'loughlin (clearly), but was very poor at Sheffield United. I fear he'll just continue Slades job and reaffirms the boards actual pre season goal.

    On a more positive note, dons bank balance isn't taking a hit.

    I think he'd be happy with that?

    I'd finally be able to hire a sexy young assistant.

    Unfortunately she won't divorce me, as skybet would only allow me to place a £16 bet after allowing me to deposit 500 and I'm irresistible when I'm not sat in my y fronts with a bottle of whisky.

    Radio Sheffield journo reporting that Charlton have made contact with Steve Evans <doh>

    One fat c*nt replacing another.

    We are competing against Mansfield for Steve Evans apparently. And probably losing too. I'd say Evans is a bit fatter than Slade.

    Wouldn't be adverse to him. But maybe that's a sign of how far we've fallen?

    I'd love Andy Hughes or Jacko as manager, but NOT under this lot. Particularly the present CEO. She has convinced our septuagenarian owner that the protests are by a few fans who don't want a woman CEO. Since we are only 1.5% of his interest he accepts whatever pack of lies she gives him, so her position is untouchable. I'd hate to see either of those two accept the poison chalice. Just get Roland out first.

    Evans steadied us, and despite how well we are now going I would have given him a chance to carry on turning us round.
    At least he tries hard and cares what happens....

    I don't care who takes over, hopefully an idiot though, would be a laugh at least

    Adkins is favourite in my poll for next manager. Steve Evans is not popular. Sue Parkes got more votes than Chris O'Loughlin.

    I'd have voted for Co'L. That would really ramp up the protests.

    On the Left-wing BBC website, The Frying Scotsman has gone for Mansfield, after talking to both clubs. So Mansfield, 18th in L2, are a better prospect than we are.
    Whoever takes the job is an idiot just for taking the job.
